the reason for having it is.. if something happens they medical teams cannot give you NSAIDS nor instert a tube into your stomach blindly so they don't puncture it. They have to see your stomach on a screen now that it is smaller.


I’m not really that concerned with the nsaids, but I was never told I couldn’t have a tube in my stomach. To each their own, but I don’t think I’ll be getting a Med Bracelet.

I have a tag on my keychain with the doctors information as well as a “Nomination” type Bracelet with the appropriate medical ID links on it.

No BLIND NG tube, NO NSAIDS.

Was it similar to the one from Amazon Prime? $16.99 sounded like a reasonable👜 price to me.

No, I got it from Lauren's Hope. They have a huge selection and custom engraving. Pricey, but nice!

Hello!
Im not sure if anyone has started a topic on this yet, and I’m new here, but I was wondering what everyone’s views on the Medical Alert ID was? Some say we should absolutely have it, others say no.
What do you all think?
I'm thinking of getting one

Ladylike, beautiful but still carries the message. Pricey but I do LIKE IT. Going to talk to Dr Needleman Tuesday about expected duration of PICC in my arm, if it is longer than years end, I'm ordering that on there also. See it might be interesting that they can use the 2nd lumen for IVs, no more having to look for an accessible vein to start in..
But at very least,i should qualify on basis of RnY by itself, yeah?

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
